I’d never heard of Cody Jinks before now, however at very first listen I might tell he’d been playing, singing, as well as composing for a long time.
This isn’t the music I’d typically listen to. It’s country. as well as let’s get this out of the way, it’s truly country. It’s not Ryan Adams singing about new York. It’s the spirit of Merle Haggard as well as Ronnie Milsap, crying over booze as well as losing women. however it’s got a structure that increases it above the stereotypical. perhaps it’s Jinks’ past as the lead singer for punk metal band Unchecked Aggression. Whatever it is, it works.
The whole album is streaming below, however make sure you at least listen to “Mamma Song” as well as “Birds.” They provide a great sense of the breadth as well as depth of this fantastic songwriter.
